玉珰缄札何由达，万里云罗雪雁飞！

风紧，扯呼！

天寒地冻，北风呼啸！但阻挡不了绿溪山庄革命群众的满腔热情。在庄队率领下，四哥四嫂与绿溪同党一起，奔赴宾州的Middle Creek，去观赏一年一度的雪雁北飞（Snow Geese Migration)。。。

Every year, hundreds of thousands of talkative snow geese and other winter birds flock to Middle Creek, an area nestled on the border of Lancaster and Lebanon counties in Kleinfeltersville，PA。

所谓兵马未动，粮草先行。出发前，庄队先查看了官方网站关于雪雁的最新update：

Thursday, March 4

Yesterday's number of birds reflects the largest number of snow geese we have had yet this year – close to 100,000! Because the lake is still partially frozen, the birds were packed into the area that has open water and they eventually ran out of room and had to sit on the ice. While this morning's count was lower than yesterday's peak number of birds, we are most likely nearing peak migration for snow geese.

While it is exciting that goose numbers are increasing, public visitation has followed suit. To help keep crowd sizes manageable and to have a more enjoyable experience, Middle Creek staff continues to encourage the public to visit during the morning hours or during the week. If you do visit during the weekend, consider viewing the snow geese from other areas including Stop #1 or Stop #6 on the Tour Route.

• Snow Geese: 70,000
• Canada Geese: 750
• Tundra Swans: 800
